2016 APCT Second Round Discussion Thread: Mano a Mano

There was a slight detour along the way, but welcome to Round 2 of the Arlong Park Character Tournament, folks. Speaking of Round 1.5, some of you really stepped up your campaign game and ensured that some unexpected characters got a second chance at glory, so kudos to you. Keep up that fervor, and you might just guarantee that your character of choice makes it big this year. Anything can happen (it's Oda the APCT)!

In any case, after many grueling one-vote matches, only the strongest/most supported characters have made it through and are ready to challenge each other mano a mano to see who deserves to move on to Round 3. Yup, starting from this point on all matches shall be 1v1 (one match per day), with the character who receives the most votes advancing to Round 3 (obviously). This tournament is only just beginning, so buckle up, brace yourselves, and enjoy the ride.

Hidden:

Match 1 = Magellan vs. Stelly
First instinct is to vote Magellan since I really don't like Stelly. BUT both often get some good campaigns. Magellan has some great ones in the past, and seems Stelly has some this year. I will wait and see on this match.

Match 2 = Capone vs. Zunisha
Hmm though I do usually vote with a don, I make exceptions in rare chances I like both contestants as I do here. Again wait and see.

Match 3 = Fred vs. Pagaya, Conis and Suu
I like Conis, and Pagaya has some wonderful campaigns in the past. And this 'Fred' is a liar, he says he's an octopus fishman, but he's squidding us there.

Match 4 = Ivankov vs. Kaku
I love Iva-chan but again, both have had good campaigns in the past. Wait and see.

Match 5 = Pekoms vs. Tony Tony Chopper

Match 6 = Carrot vs. X Drake

Match 7 = Barto Club's Granny vs. Wizards of Weatheria
ouch! like them both too much

Match 17 = Gedatsu vs. Sanji Vinsmoke
Gedatsu amuses me. I usually don't vote Sanji but he is getting some good character development. The part here he turns down Pudding in recent chapter is what stayed my hand form saying fully supporting Gedatsu.
